  1. Today I've added blister pack insert scans for 2-in-1 Hash Block / Eagle Plan, Alien, and Dream World. The game instructions archive has also been added to: Especially take note of the Italian version of the Honey Bee instructions, which feature hand-written corrections that were simply xeroxed into the finished product! Amazing!! Finally, the ridiculous “Supervision ninja” makes his second appearance, courtesy Watary Italia's fabulous stickers. www.diskman.com/presents/supervision ^ - You just can't make this stuff up.
  2. Uhh... no on both counts. None of my friends or family want video games. And Fatal Encounter (Australian release of Super Fighter), which I've been begging people for for, like, a bajillion years, no one has come through on. What a load of stewed tomatoes. I do however plan to spread some New Year's sneer by forcing a round of game.com link play on my buddy during our traditional New Year's Eve hike. Nowhere to go but up -- literally and metaphorically speaking in this case -- after ushering in 2019 in such a traumatic manner, wouldn't you say? (Unless he leaps off the edge of the mountain when he sees the game.com.)
  3. Holy cow! I rushed into this thread thinking, "I'd better write in 4D Boxing before this all gets filled up with console titles..." but immediately noticed that four people had "beaten me to the punch." I grew up w/the version of 4D Boxing published by EA, only to discover years later that Mindscape had published a slightly different version, 4D Sports Boxing, with alternate soundtrack, etc. A great game indeed, and it comes in two "flavors!" BONUS. Also, my best friend had a copy of Boxing Legends of the Ring for SNES, and we had some fun times with that one, clobbering the hell out of each other.
  4. Geek out @ Diskman Presents and learn more than you want to about obscure games & systems... http://www.diskman.com/

      That is just the right amount to learn.

      I find that website extremely soothing with its nostalgic design.

      Thanks, thanatos, that's exactly what I'm going for.

  5. Yo! Today there's been some cool [?] updates to the site: * Confirmation of "Cross High" existing as a standalone cartridge * Scans of Chinese-language instructions for six games + the Supervision itself * Scans of a damn near perfect TV-Link box, + instructions in six languages * Scans of Watary Italia advertisements, featuring the "Supervision ninja" <-- just ridiculous www.diskman.com/presents/supervision Merry Christmas!
  6. OK, I found & bought a complete copy of WOF2 from a nice fellow, so this thread can be closed now.
  7. So, the long-rumored version of Cross High on a cart by itself has finally surfaced. Next time I update the website there'll be some info about it.
  8. Sure, you're welcome. I'm glad you dig it. It was just one of those things I felt I had to do, because no one else would be crazy enough to do it. And also, I do enjoy Supervision research. (+ it's more fun than actually playing the games)
  9. I've since updated the site to have much higher-res versions of all the scans. So if you popped in & downloaded them all early on, go back and re-download them all. I've also added quite a few additional scans, such as the packaging and inserts for the Hartung & Goldnation variations of the Supervision. And there'll be even more content added soon(ish); a few people were nice enough to send me some scans + photos their own items, which is very helpful as it saved me from having to waste MORE money on MORE Supervision stuff. That's always nice, welcomed, and appreciated.
  10. I am well aware of eBay. I am exploring other options in the mean time, hoping to buy the game as soon as possible.
  11. Hello. I want a complete copy (cart + manual + box) of Wheel of Fortune 2 for Tiger game.com. Preferably new, sealed. But I'll take unsealed *IF* everything, esp. the box, is in like-new condition. Will pay a very fair price. I need it to complete my collection, and document the game on my WIP website, "The end of the game.com" so hit me up if you have it available. Thx.
  12. Game Gear sound chip is poo. That said, I have a soft spot for this machine -- though yes, I highly prefer the Lynx -- and I can personally recommend these Game Gear games: - James Pond II: Codename Robocod (far from a "perfect" adaptation, but still fun) - Mega Man (handled clumsily by U.S. Gold (as always), it's still playable and enjoyable) - Shining Force II: The Sword of Hajya (good RPG) I'm sure others can recommend a bevy of other games. My experience with the GG is so far limited to only a dozen or so. (Though considering I had mine re-capped and composite modded I should probably start using it more. )
  13. Reaperman: If you visit the music page of the site, you can download recordings I made on real hardware. Some Fatal Craft tunes are in there, for your disenjoyment. krslam: "John Adventure" makes me think about the toilet. But then, most Supervision games do. boxpressed: Thanks, that story is very important to me and I love being able to share it. Check out Sango Fighter 2 in DOSBox, it's pretty cool too.
  14. YES. But dear God, if there's anything else I can do to convince you not to waste any money on a Supervision: http://www.tailchao.com/Wataroo/index.php ^ That's the most advanced emulator. Please DO NOT ask me, nor Osman, for game binaries.
  15. I hope you do give it another try. It's a really cool little gizmo. Lots of fun to be had with the Trackstar series.
  16. Hey guys, Just a heads-up to let you know my Trackstar website is up, covering the E, 128 and also Quadram's Quadlink <-- These are all "Apple II on a PC ISA card" Apple II clones. Really cool little devices! If you own these devices, esp. the Trackstar E or Plus, there's HUNDREDS of disk images in its TrackStore format that I've converted manually. So you can download and enjoy a HUGE amount of software without needing real Apple II disks. There's also a working KryoFlux disk image of the Trackstar 128 Utility Program disk, so you can create a disk with the copy protection intact which allows you to actually use your 128. This is perfect for those who -- like me -- bought their 128 without the necessary disk. D'oh! There ain't a lot of info or resources about the Trackstar cards out there, so I hope mine fills the void. Enjoy it @ www.diskman.com/presents/trackstar
  17. "Many years ago, a beautiful country lost all the money suddenly. It could be the poisonous spider's doing." Holy Sssnake, it's finally here! The website that nobody demanded! Supervision: handheld of the less fortunate www.diskman.com/presents/supervision If you're familiar with the Supervision, you're probably laughing right now. If you're not familiar with the Supervision... oh boy, are you in for disappointment. This website is the result of 15 years [!] of research and collecting, and today (Oct. 4th, 2018) is its world debut. I'm sorry. There's also lots of other nifty, geeky, classic gaming stuffs on the main site, which you may enjoy a lot more than this Supervision nonsense... www.diskman.com
  18. Yo, thanks for sharing your feedback about the game, gents. Glad to see y'all are diggin' it. All pre-order copies have been shipped, so if you haven't received yours yet... tell your postman to get the lead out. I'm pleased as Christmas punch we were able to get this game back into production & in the hands of even more Lynx fanatics. PenguiNet showed us all what the Lynx is truly capable of. I'm proud to have enjoyed the privilege of producing & publishing this masterwork.
  19. ...aaaaand shipping is now commencing. I'll be posting orders every day -- including Sunday as the postal kiosk is open 24h -- until they're all out the door. Keep an eye out for your shipping confirmation e-mail. Please feel welcome to share your comments with me, once you've had a chance to try the game.
  20. Howdy! (See what I did there?) The Penguin Bros., fiendish 5¼" floppy disk hoarders that they are, don't want Zaku to ship this month. But, too bad. Because it will. All pre-ordered copies of Zaku will soon be on their way to y'all, so you can take control of our heroine and, you know, like, beat those penguins up, and stuff. If you need to update your mailing address, send the current one to me --> [email protected] <-- and I'll personally reply with a confirmation. Thanks for your patience, everyone. It's going to be a wicked cool Lynx-centric summer, yo.
  21. Let's clarify: 1). We announced we'd produce 400 additional copies. We pre-sold 400 copies. So we have stopped taking orders. 2). There are no "extras." 400 is 400. The end. 3). We have produced and sold 1,000 copies in all. That's pretty darn impressive for a new Lynx game. Best quit while we're ahead. We will not be producing additional copies of Zaku in the future. Thanks again for your interest, everyone. To those who pre-ordered, we'll begin shipping soon. E-mail updates will be sent shortly, giving customers some time to update their mailing addresses if necessary. You are welcome to send mailing address updates at any time, however. Do it now, if you like. And for the nth time: If you have questions for me, please send them by e-mail --> [email protected] <-- for the fastest response time.
  22. Already answered in my previous reply. Scroll up, please. Ah hell, no one's going to scroll up. Yes, I'll ask for updated addresses to be sent. But you can send them any time. Now is good.
  23. To clarify: "Reaching our pre-order quota" simply means "We're not taking any additional pre-orders." It doesn't mean we were waiting to pre-sell all the copies before producing them. Anyone who paid was always guaranteed to get a copy. (I think that was clear already, but I'd rather no one misunderstand my previous post. I don't want to see a bunch of speculation again. Speculation is the enemy.) In fact the game has been in production for a while now; we'll be ready to ship before too much longer. So for anyone who swore it wasn't going to come in time for Christmas -- or Thanksgiving or whatever -- sorry to disappoint you but they'll start shipping well before, for example, National Custodial Worker's Recognition Day.
